1. INTRODUCTION1.1 This Scheme document identifies the evaluation and assessment requirements andpractices for the purposes of certification and listing of heat pumps. These requirementsare consistent with the requirements for heat pumps in the relevant CommissionRegulations, either, supplementing Directive 2010/30/EU of the European Parliament andof the Council, or, implementing Directive 2009/125/EC of the European Parliament andof the Council. Hereinafter the term ‘ErP’ is generally used in relation to these directivesand regulations.1.2 Certification and listing of products is based on evidence acceptable to the CertificationBody: that the product meets the MCS Requirements for heat pumps that the manufacturer has staff, processes and systems in place to ensure that theproduct delivered meets the MCS Requirements for heat pumpsAnd on: periodic audits of the manufacturer including testing as appropriate; and, compliance with the contract with the Certification Body for listing and approvalincluding agreement to rectify faults as appropriate.2. DEFINITIONSFor the purposes of these MCS Requirements for heat pumps and for the MCS Schemethe following definitions are used and are taken from the ErP Directive and EN14825:2016. This includes definitions for both applications and heat pump types. Unlessotherwise stated, the term ‘heat pump’ used throughout this standard includes low andvery high temperature heat pumps.Issue: 6.0Date: 26/11/2018PRODUCT CERTIFICATION SCHEMEREQUIREMENTS: HEAT PUMPSMCS: 007Page 5 of 37
TermDefinitionLowtemperatureapplicationAn application where the heat pump space heater delivers itsdeclared capacity for heating at an indoor heat exchanger outlettemperature of 35 C.IntermediatetemperatureapplicationAn application where the heat pump space heater delivers itsdeclared capacity for heating at an indoor heat exchanger outlettemperature of 45 C.MediumtemperatureapplicationAn application where the heat pump space heater or heat pumpcombination heater delivers its declared capacity for heating at anindoor heat exchanger outlet temperature of 55 C.HightemperatureapplicationAn application where the heat pump space heater or heat pumpcombination heater delivers its declared capacity for heating at anindoor heat exchanger outlet temperature of 65 C.Lowtemperatureheat pumpsA heat pump space heater that is specifically designed for lowtemperature application, and that cannot deliver heating water withan outlet temperature of 52 C at an inlet dry (wet) bulb temperatureof – 7 C (– 8 C) in the reference design conditions for averageclimate (88% part load condition for water/brine-to-water units).Heat pump(excluding lowtemperatureheat pumps)A “heat pump”, as defined by the Commission Regulation, is one thathas been demonstrated to be able to deliver heating water with anoutlet temperature of 52 C at an inlet dry (wet) bulb temperature of– 7 C (– 8 C) in the reference design conditions for average climate(88% part load condition for water/brine-to-water units).Very hightemperatureheat pumpA heat pump that has been demonstrated to be able to operate at the‘high temperature application’ condition, defined above, whilstmeeting the requirements of the relevant Commission Regulation.Heat PumpSpace heaterA space heater using ambient heat from an air source, water sourceor ground source, and/or waste heat for heat generation; a heat pumpspace heater may be equipped with one or more supplementaryheaters using the Joule effect in electric resistance heating elementsor the combustion of fossil and/or biomass fuels.Issue: 6.0Date: 26/11/2018PRODUCT CERTIFICATION SCHEMEREQUIREMENTS: HEAT PUMPSMCS: 007Page 6 of 37
Domestic hotwater heatpumpDomestic hot water heat pump means a heat pump using ambientheat from an air source, water source or ground source, and/or wasteheat for heat generation that is solely designed to provide heat todeliver hot drinking or sanitary water at given temperature levels,quantities and flow rates during given intervals, and is connected toan external supply of drinking or sanitary water.Heat PumpCombinationheaterA heat pump space heater that is designed to also provide heat todeliver hot drinking or sanitary water at given temperature levels,quantities and flow rates during given intervals, and is connected toan external supply of drinking or sanitary water.Gas absorption/adsorption heatpumpA heat pump that uses direct heat energy from the combustion of gas(natural or LPG) to affect the absorption or adsorption of a mediuminto another which creates a low temperature low pressure side anda high pressure high temperature side. The process may be toreversibly change the chemical composition (Absorption) or merelymechanically combine two chemicals temporarily together(Adsorption).Solar assistedheat pumpA type of air source heat pump that uses a vapour compression cycleto generate heat from a non-aspirated evaporator which should belocated externally in the ambient air and is able to benefit fromadditional heat from direct solar radiation. These are sometimesreferred to as “thermodynamic” panels.3. SCOPEThe scope of this MCS Product Certification Scheme document is limited to single heatpumps up to 45 kWth output, at 100% load at the low temperature standard ratingcondition specified in EN14511-2.Products designed for the extraction of heat from loft spaces are excluded from the scopeof this MCS Product Certification Scheme document.This MCS Product Certification Scheme document for heat pumps provides ongoingindependent, third party certification of heat pumps for companies who wish todemonstrate that heat pumps, of the types below, meet and continue to meet:Issue: 6.0Date: 26/11/2018PRODUCT CERTIFICATION SCHEMEREQUIREMENTS: HEAT PUMPSMCS: 007Page 7 of 37
